88-22 Pontiac Street, Queens, NY 11427

The two-story, three-unit building at 88-22 Pontiac Street in Bellerose, owned by Dev Anand, was constructed in 2007 and has experienced several maintenance issues over its history. The most recent incident occurred in January 2024, involving a heat and hot water complaint that was promptly addressed within 24 hours with no violations found.

In 2021, there was a cluster of emergency complaints related to unsanitary conditions (specifically mold) and paint/plaster issues affecting the ceiling and walls, with at least one violation issued regarding mold abatement requirements in a first-floor apartment. Earlier, in 2020, there were two incidents involving heat/hot water and an appliance issue (electric/gas range), both of which were resolved within a few days. The building has undergone three annual bedbug report inspections between 2022 and 2025, with no reported infestations in any of the units during these periods.

However, there are currently open violations from the 2021 inspections specifically regarding the repair of broken or defective plastered surfaces and paint in a uniform color on the east wall of a first-floor apartment. While the building has had several maintenance issues, most complaints have been resolved relatively quickly, and the recent bedbug reports indicate no current infestations. The property has had consistent bedbug reporting compliance from 2023 through 2025, with zero infested, eradicated, or re-infested units reported in the past two years.
